My question is concerning the following part of Inexorable Defeat:
Battle: If any enemy units are at the current battlefield, choose your performing Personality: Move him there. Straighten his unit if he moved. You scorch the earth behind him. If he moved, negate the movement of any other units to the battlefield. Lose 2 Honor.
If a unit is moved in using this battle action and then sent home, does it negate the movement of other units to that battlefield, or does it negate the movement of all units to that battlefield? Basically, can multiple copies of this card be used as long as it is on the same unit?

You may use multiple copies on the same unit. Barring any other effects, it will move that unit (and that unit alone) to the battlefield.
